We received this morning the Paris Papers of Tuesday last. Those of Wednesday, which were due, have not arrived. The following are extracts • 4, CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, FEB. e. " The discussion on the Rceruitmeut Projet was reltinied. " 20th Article was amended, bysubstitutini; the *Cads balloted soldiers for tegionsilet, and corps (Parolee for legion. " M. Richard proposed anantentlment;t6 qtab ifittite the 31st ! March. for 31st December, for "ilittettirging the soldisri, entitled to their din- Chirke from having se;;ed out their term. ".ihis-arnetultnent.tvas got rid of by the pre viuds question, and the Article was aeopted. 44 . Art. 21 Title 3, respecting re-inlistitient, was agreed to. I ,' in Arr. 22. M. Pontet moved an a ntend meat; to the effect that persons re-intisting for sit years should be entitled to pay and ad vancement equally with those who enlisted for two Years, (chiefly a different arrangement of the " thiS amend►uent was got rid of by the pre, %lout luestiOn, as also au amend:»et►t moved by de Floirac, to suppress the wl►ole paragraph, and the article was agreed to. " On Article 23, Title 4, Teglecting Legion ary Veterans, a considerable discassion took place, Ofeee being a number of amendments moved. 4 ! In the course of it, Marshal the Count GouviOn St. Cyr, the Ministee3t „War, observed, With respect to the reserve, that ite progxess of a vittoridos invading enemy conld-only be stopped by ‘veil-disciplined troops and experieuCed sol diers. " A long Contest ensued as to whether priority should be "given to an amendment of M.. Du vergier de Hauranne placing the persons dis charged from active service (with certain excep tions) at the disposal of the Ring, for the forma tion of-a reserve, or to an Amendirient of Gene va! Dupont, limiting the amount of the reserve to 25,00 U men, but declaring that they should be young men not drawn, by the bailor. " It.was at length decied: on the appel no minal, by a majoiity of 112 to 108,. that priority should be given to the anieuthnent of General llupatit. This amendment %gas opposed by M. Catnille Jordan, on the ground that in ease of war a re serve worthy of the name could only be effec tively formed of 0141 soldiers ! , it was also op posed by General Lagrange; and supported by M. Mestadier, " The further discussion was adjourned-till to morrow. •• PARtS, Fes.3.---The Doke de Berry is still indisposed, and was not at the Thui'Jerks either yesterday or Sunday. "'[lie Duke of Wellington, wearing the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Holy Ghost, was yes terday presented to the King with,the accustomed forms, and had a pri►ate audience of his Majesty. His Grace afterwards visited the Princes and the Princesses. " The Prince Royal of Bavaria, it is said, in tends to embark from Naples tur Greece, to re- Main there some months. FIVE PER CENTS. " Monday The Illrmiteur of Tuesday gives a trauslation of the Debates in the Briti 9 h Parliament on the two first dayS of the Session, but it carefully .omits all that *as said by the_iii4rl Stanhope, reipecting the state of affairs in Franc e , -ftimt: the necessity for continuing there the Army of Occupation. SUN OFFICE, Two o'Ci.ocri. We stop the Press to state, that we have just received the Path; Papers of Wednesday last. The discussion on Tuesday, in the Chamber of Deputies, was confined to the amendment of General Duran'', which was rejected; and to the 24th Article, which was agreed to with an amend ment, limiting the service of the veterans who bad served as balloted men to the interior, and to the term of six years. Those of thirty two years of age, or who hail been in effective service for 12 years, to be exempted. The ball given by the Eaglish Ambassador on Monday, was attended by upwards of 1,000 per sons of distinction. The Duke of WELLINGTON dined on Monday with the Palace de TALLEY RAND. The discussions between Russia and the Porte still continue at Constantinople. An article from Inspruck gives nearly the same account of the ,late transaction at Algiers which we extracted the day before yesterday, hut with the difference that the son of the English Consul was not murdered, but menaced with death. It is again said, that the Congress of, Sovereigns will meet at Vienna. PRENCH FIVE PER CENTS. W;ineWay. .. There have been rumours that the Lords LI VERPOOL and S/DXOUTH have had some differ ences with their Colleagues, and are about to re tire from Office. iVe give little credit to these rumours, though they are somewhat confidently asserted, and Can only add, that we should feel deep regret if they had any solid foundation. Never, we believe, were the OPPOSITION at a lower ebb than at the present moment. The Scribblers without doors, and the Barkers within, are obliged tir resort to topics on which the common sense and feelings of the country.are against them, Nothing could exceed their clamours to have the HABRA, CORPUS.S.U . SPENS/O'n ACT repealed, and when it - wai repealed, they blamed Ministers for dispatching the . Matter •with so much rapidity. Now they object to the Ballot for the Committee,who_ are to iny.estigatc, the causes which produced the Act, though it is evi debt that OpPOsiiion Membert constitute part of that Committee, st n we know well enough that, as one or two itirludent OratiirS may diiturb the wLule Clouse, they cannot tie less operaiiVe tiiivarting tlit,meaSures of the Cotiimittee; Would the'Opposition, Scribblers without, or Orators w i t hi n , h a ve the Committees formed Merely of Opposition Members. IVliat chanCe of an impar tial hearing could theu be expected, since the Op position have already tried and condemned the Ad ministration. Well might the Earl of LiVEtti 3 OOL, after wh-it Earl GROsYttNOR said, disclaim the lat ter as a judge. If the Putilie look at the list of the Committee, they will have no reason to expect that its decisions, whatever they may be, trill h a ve met with no opposition. The Country was restored to tranquillity, and the existence of Go, veroment preserved,bytkeact which has excited so much perverse anti senseless clamour; and though Ministers, according to the old and necessary forms of the Constitution, mean to apply for a Bill of Indemnity, vet in reality they deserve the respect, the esteem, - a nd the gratitude of the em pire for having, with firm and timely measures,• secured it from all danger. We were the first 'to state, from what we hail reason to deem good authority, the intended marriage of. the Princess ELIZABETH, and we find that matters arc in the most favourable train for this interesting event. Judging from the uniform conduct of the Princess as a Daughter, a Sister, the Patroness of Talents and the Pro tectress of Distress, her intende'd Bridegroom will receive a greater treasure in herself than he can in any Manner otherwise derive from the Union. The following aceGunt is given of the Princely Candidate fur the 114nd of our amiable Princess, and of the consequent arrangements, but we do not vouch for.their authenticity : " Prince FREDERIC JOSEPH LOUIS, of Hesse liimuliourg, is in his 49th year, being horn in July, 1;G7.• :Ile commanded the Austriau Hussars with distinguished gallantry ; and we learn from Officers that served with him,thqt he is an Officer of great military merit. H'is unina With our amiable Prin cess EuzxnEut is fixed ; his Serene Highness w;il he intro. dosed at the PutscE's Levee, on Thursday next. The mar riage will tate place at Easter. The Princess EI.IZABETH will hare a marriage portion of 40,0601, and her annual in come is 15,0004. a-year. Her intended Consort is hereditary Prince, and the reigning Duke is in his 71St year." It is said that the Duke of CLartENcE is in treaty for nu union with a Princess of Deny ark. We beg leave to direct 1-I,e:l4rtieolar agten!it.in. of Government to' the WA, u) ()lir Paper 'of this (lay..

Ut4ess, lyowever, some measures are speedily and vigorously adopt ed, we may expect to hear "very often, not may of robbery and ferocious outrages, but of mur ders of the most cruel description. THISTLEWOOD, one of the men indicted* With WATSON and others for High Treason, having sent a Challenge to Lord SIDMOUTI-1, his LOrtlS!iip attended this day the grand Jury of the-Court of King'3 Bench, to prefer an indictment against him for the offence. We received Boston Papers this morning one (lay later than the last arrival. (From the Boston Ce;stinal of the 7th Jan.) NORFOLK, JAN.

They both contain letters from Genoa upon the subject of the late atrocious conduct of the Dey of Algiers ; hut each represents the trans action in terars different from those nt the Fleneli account, and a t:rotunt of hope is afroided that the brutal trea‘ment of the English Consul and his family has bceti exaggerated by the Paris Journals. None of the statements now before us mention the murder of the son of the British Consul ; but the other alledged atrocities are in some degree corro borated ; and these alone are of.such a description as to call for the most signal and exemplary ven geance upon the head of the barbarous an d int 3. !WM§ aggressor.

Philanthrophy. He is occasionally severe In his comments upon several Persons who have ac. glared considerable reputation for their efforts to extingaish the odiOus traffic, but his own cha racter has been expOsed to unjust censure, and, smarting under a sense of ill-treatment, it is not surprizing that the same at dent feelings of lionia : nity which induce him to engage in the cause, "should proportionally operate in resentment, and a • spirit of retaliation. The milk abounds in in formation and pertinent remarks, suppoged by a rifertnce to striking and interesting facts. The Author traces the progress of the measures adopted for abolishing the Slave Trade from the year 1765, to the latest acts, stating, and commenting on the conduct of other States in reference to 'a purpose 30 essentially desirable to all. lie points out all the errors in the measures hitherto adopted, states the causes of their failure, and suggests what he conceives to be the only plan that can filially ter. Initiate so disgraceful' and so execrable a traffic. The following is a part of what he says in answer to some injurious comments of Mr. BROUGHAM " Let the reader only reflect fur a moment, and consider this Mr. Brougham, without rank or title, either academic or professional, with nei ther character for legal acquirement, nor practice as a barrister in Westminster Hall, taking advan tage of his accidental seat in the Housc of Com mons to drag irreverently into debate the name o f a Gentleman who had keen fourteen years one of his Majesty's Judges in the Colonies, and se voi years a Judge of a Vice Admiralty Court, re commended to those stations by the highest legal authority, and whose rectitude of conduct has been confirmed, during. the whole time he dis charged the duties of those Aces, by.the most continned approbation. " Had Mr. Brougham any knowledge of the rules of a Court of Justice, he would nut have violated them ; had he any respect for the dignity of the House of Commons, he could not so wan tonly have degraded that assembly; had he the slightest idea of how delicately a Judge's conduct 3bould be spoken of, he would not hare premedi tatedly attempted to depreciate the station ; had he possessed the feelings of a Gentleman, lie must • have shrunk from such an unprovoked assassina • trots of character ; but, unrestrained by '' the na tive hue of resolution," he thought the sanctuary of Parliament invited a gratification, which a sense of honour must have forbidden hint to se . cept.— Entreaty has arrested my pen; I have done." IVe shall I►ere stop for the present ; but, as the subject involves every consideration in which the happiness of a great portion of the human race, and the character of the whole is imperiously concerned, we shall take the first opportunity to submit it again to the attention of our readers.
